This guy Is called nigel askey, and is apparently a legitimate historian. He published a paper debunking TIK's claim that the K/D ratio of the soviets during WW was 1/1.6, instead claiming that the soviets lost over 4 more times as many combatants as the Germansduring WW2. Here is his paper. I'm not a qualified historian and I dont have access to acrhives or time to research, so I can't debunk him.

http://www.operationbarbarossa.net/wp-content/uploads/2017/10/Essay-alt-view-TIK-presentation.pdf

I checked out his website and alsthough he does seem to be knowledgeable, he makes certain ridiculous claims that the "Vicors write history" in WW2, and the allies covered up how technologically and tactically inferior they were to the germans.

>Also how is artillery counted?
When he says "gun artillery" and "tubes" he is referring to cannons & mortars. If you scroll down to the last paragraph he does a separate comparison for the MLRS' between the German Nebelwerfer and the Soviet Katyusha.
> Meaning the Germans were firing over 3x more than the Soviet forces, even though they had 2-2.5x fewer artillery. That sounds fucking ridiculous
The gist of the argument is that while the Germans did have less artillery weapons, they also had more artillery ammunition (due to a larger gunpowder industry) which allowed them to shoot more than the Soviets

>>20603
>they also had more artillery ammunition (due to a larger gunpowder industry) which allowed them to shoot more than the Soviets
Which is fucking bullshit, because the Soviets fired more shells over the war than the Germans, by a significant margin, and while logistics in the first 2 years of the war could account for it, Kursk was in the summer of '44 and the Soviets prepared those defensive lines for some time, the idea that they lacked the shells necessary is absurd, especially considering that the USSR had a reputation for their artillery usage and it having a significant impact on the initial start of Kursk especially.

Hello folks, I was hoping someone could give me some decent literature on the Babiy Yar massacre in English, I wish to send it to a friend for them to study. It's hard to find anything non-Russian on the subject that doesn't insert anti-communist drivel into it and unfortunately, unlike myself, she cannot read Russian. Help a comrade out.

I have no idea about the exact numbers or ratio but the Russian meatgrinder tactic is world famous plus Stalin executed his top military leaders.

There isn't really a franchise where I like every game. Quake 1 is my favorite 90's FPS, with HL after it. Then after the 90s I can't even tell, I do like the campaign in TimeSplitters 3, Doom 3 was actually fun to me as well.

How do you take it from a prepper LARP to a legitimate strategy and contingency plan? From what I understand, plenty of revolutionaries have had to do this through history to survive. It seems like a very important skill to have in the event that you need to evade fash or rapidly declining material conditions during the fall of capitalism.

Realistically, how do you accomplish this? Even in an extremely generous situation where you have your own land in the middle of nowhere, and have the money to buy supplies (clothing, repair equipment, tools) once in a while, it seems nigh-impossible in the modern era. Not only do you have to survive mother nature and construct and maintain reliable shetler and storage, you also have to somehow secure methods of maintaining gun supplies, food, clothing, information, etc. Most of this seems to demand either a lot of money or a lot of crime (which has its own issues with making the local proles hostile to you)

I'm interested in resources and methods of training survival skills (without getting myself killed like a retard).

>>4972
Some of the comments are important or interesting to look at:
>Generator tech here, if possible you should avoid running your diesel generator under low loads for extended periods, this can lead to something called "wet stacking". A diesel engine needs to run under load in order to burn clean, under no load conditions you'll coke up the engine and shorten it's life. Simply put, you'll want to run your generator at a minumum 25% load whenever possible, and every so often you'll want to run it up to 100% for a few hours to burn off carbon and spooge buildup as well as verify function at rated capacity.
The MEP models had common issues with wet stacking. so run them around a 80% load for around 30mins-1hr at your yearly service date.
>Electrician here; pleased to see that you're adhering to code, and doing a neat, non-lashup job. Attention to detail saves MANY problems down the road. Next: Battery bank + Inverter. Two reasons: 1) initial switchover on power loss is marginally faster, especially if your generator is cold or the outage is a short one, and 2) (more important) You can load up your generator recharging the bank, and prevent carbon depositing in the cylinders - Need to periodically run a generator under heavy load to keep it clean. Downside of a bank + inverter is more cost and more maintenance. If you're NOT getting a bank, consider getting a dummy load that can artificially load up the generator.

>the 400 hertz are for radar systems, namely the SQS-36 Firefinder and ANTPQ-64 Sentinel. Those 10K generators have Yanmar engines and we would run them 24/7 and only shut them down for every 200 hours for oil changes. We had 2 per radar and would switch gens every 200 hours. Each generator would have 4000+ hours on them at the end of a deployment and they would go directly to Toby Hanna Army depot to get rebuilt or what we called a reset. I know those systems like the back of my hand and would by a surplus one in a heart beat.The internal tank is only good for about 8 hours of run time but you can run a line for an external tank.

One of the reasons I don't play any of the Souls clones is that they never have supporting characters (think of the summons that help us with the boss fights) like Solaire that gives us a small respite from the solitary nature of these games with their own stories and personal quest.
3 posts omitted.

>>45852
It seems to me that souls clones have a real urgency to adopt as many elements from dark souls as they can, including elements that are counter to good storytelling, like the story happening in between world refreshes. What seems to me like a technical limitation justified by the concept has been embraced as part of the design language of soulslikes which hurts most games. And the more they stray from these design elements the less recognizable as souls-like they become (Drova certainly doesnt feel very soulsy to me). Mind you some of these design elements work for souls games, because Miyazaki was trying to convey a world in stasis, that has been stuck in limbo for so long that its internal mechanics are alien and unknowable. It's not meant to feel alive, which is the exact opposite of what most RPGs were going for up until souls games were a thing

>>45854
What I would consider core of Souls games identity is combat against heavy hitting enemies with predefined attack patterns you have to avoid with help of invincibility frames, and the absence of non-combat gameplay mechanics. So I would also not describe Drova as souls-like, on account of the second point, but it is what I would like the genre to become, because I dont enjoy such a decontextualized gameplay as Souls game have. There is no story, no choices or consequences, no exploration (as in you will never find anything other than more things to stab), shallow buildcrafting, no sense of progression. You start as a guy who stabs things with sword, and you keep stabbing things with sword, and the game ends when you run out of things to stab. The only other thing the game has going for it discovering bits and pieces of lore, which is the only reason I care about these games and what makes them so frustrating to me. I love the dark fantasy world, the cosmic horror elements, subtle storytelling that makes player put those pieces together, but the actual gameplay I find too tedious, meaningless and repetitive.

>>45855
I like what FromSoft did with souls games, as I said, it had a unique sensitivity that no other game had, especially Demon's Souls. I don't mind that it had no story, because the whole point was to form a ludonarrative around it (and indeed, if you read the "manga", it tries to recreate the internal monologue of *the player*), and I like that the world is both, hermetic to you, but also is not arbitrary at all. It makes the experience personal, even claustrophobic at times. Where I agree with you is that I think it's a mistake for other games to pick up these design elements because they feel too arbitrary and counter to what they're going for, like Lies of P which is clearly trying to deliver a more grand story but it's constrained by the souls like elements.

>but it is what I would like the genre to become

I'm slightly curious about what stuff like The Witcher 4 will go for, I think souls combat is more or less expected to some degree, but it's not like CDPR can abandon what they're know for: their emphasis on narrative. As far as FromSoft games go, I think Elden Ring was the pinnacle of everything Miyazaki had been going for, for the last 2 decades, and it's time to move on from it. I really liked how subtle Sekiro was narrative-wise, so I'm lowkey positive about what they'll deliver in the future

>>45856
I dont mind it either, and do enjoy solitary atmosphere of those games, but could had and should had more to do in gameplay department. Exploration, puzzles, buildcrafting would enhance the game without taking anything from it. Like you are in a dying world, having areas that are devoid of even enemies, where challenge is environmental, would fit right in.

As for Witcher 4, I have no hope for it. Last two CDProject games have been a massive commercial success despite their utter mediocrity, so they have no reason to course correct.

Note these aren't my recipes I snagged them off of reddit so they may not work
Napalm is a mixture of polymer/aluminum soap powder/gelling agent, gasoline, and benzene. However, a simplified recipe is gasoline and styrofoam insulation or packing peanuts, the styrofoam dissolves immediately forming a gel that is very thick and slow moving, then you light it, then it gets interesting, it becomes the napalm popularized by the Vietnam war and yes, it does stick to anything. Also, leaving it out on a flat sheet in a cool area like a garage slowly turns it rubbery so you can “adjust” the consistency of necessary. Do not light it indoors EVER.

To make a pipe bomb, you will need tape, a shoelace, vinegar, dry ice, and nitrogen chloride available at your disposal. You can find these materials at your local hardware store, including Lowe's and Home Depot locations. The first step you need to take is to find a suitable container for your explosive. For this tutorial, I am going to be using a plastic water bottle for example. Place about 50 mg of nitrogen chloride in the bottle, then insert your dry ice carefully. Mix your contents with about 1/2 spoon of vinegar in the bottle. Close and shake your bottle carefully and allow the dry ice to impact the cap. The point of impact will become where you attach your shoelace. Tape your shoelace onto the impact point. Upon usage, the flame will transmit kinetic energy to the dry ice mechanism.

LSD Recipe for you hippies

A solution of 6.7 g KOH in 100 mL H2O, under an inert atmosphere and magnetically stirred, was brought to 75 °C, and 10 g ergotamine tartrate (ET) added. The reaction mixture turned yellow as the ergotamine went into solution over the course of 1 h. The stirring was continued for an additional 3 h. The reaction mixture was cooled to about 10 °C with an external ice bath, and acidified to a pH of about 3.0 by the dropwise addition of 2.5 N H2SO4. White solids started to appear early in the neutralization; approximately 60 mL of sulfuric acid was required. The reaction mixture was cooled overnight, the solids removed by filtration, and the filter cake washed with 10 mL Et2O. The dry solids were transferred to a beaker, suspended in 50 mL 15 % ammonia in anhydrous ethanol, stirred for 1 h, and separated by decantation. This extraction was repeated, and the original decantation and the second extract combined and filtered to remove a few hundred milligrams of unwanted solids. The clear filtrate was stripped of solvent under vacuum, the residual solids dissolved in 50 mL of 1% aqueous ammonia, and this solution was acidified as before with 2.5 N H2SO4. The precipitated solids were removed by filtration and washed with Et2O until free of color. After drying under vacuum to a constant weight, there was obtained 3.5 g of d-lysergic acid hydrate, which should be stored in a dark, sealed container.

A suspension of 3.15 g d-lysergic acid hydrate and 7.1 g of diethylamine in 150 mL CHCl3 was brought to reflux with stirring. With the external heating removed, there was added 3.4 g POCl3 over the course of 2 min, at a rate sufficient to maintain refluxing conditions. The mixture was held at reflux for an additional 5 min, at which point everything had gone into solution. After returning to room temperature, the solution was added to 200 mL of 1 N NH4OH. The phases were separated, the organic phase dried over anhydrous MgSO4, filtered, and the solvent removed under vacuum. The residue was chromatographed over alumina with elution employing a 3:1 C6H6/CHCl3 mixture, and the collected fraction stripped of solvent under hard vacuum to a constant weight. This free-base solid can be recrystallized from benzene to give white crystals with a melting point of 87-92 °C. IR (in cm-1): 750, 776, 850, 937 and 996, with the carbonyl at 1631.

Ever wonder why every single culture has spoken about some hidden intelligent species in our oceans? (Kappa, Nommo, Jinn, merfolk, sirens)
Makes you wonder if another intelligent race exists in the ocean, since we already know one exists on land (us).

We also constantly hear about UFOs coming in and out of the ocean.

Why am I so bad at beat-em-ups? Played Lollipop Chainsaw, God Hand, and Viewtiful Joe, and couldn't get very far in any of them before ragequitting. My attacks seem to do no damage, whereas when I watch people play the games, they kill enemies in a few hits. I'm clearly doing something wrong. I get that beat-em-ups have multiple attack buttons, and I'm supposed to be performing combos, but I cannot for the life of me figure out when to use which attacks.

i remember enemies in lollipop chainsaw were spongy as hell, but you gotta be doing something wrong in viewtiful joe

try playing on easy mode. no shame in it.

>>45838
>My attacks seem to do no damage, whereas when I watch people play the games, they kill enemies in a few hits.
honestly would have to see gameplay from you to see what you're doing wrong. but regardless. In God Hand, for damage, you can start off by doing the kick loop (https://www.youtube.com/shorts/q3405pH_rHc) which basically only requires you to counter, launch or stun an enemy, have them up against a wall, then spam X > up dodge (right stick) > X > up dodge > … over and over again, until they're dead or escape the sequence somehow. IMO the main thing to learn isn't "what moves to use" but how to deal with each individual enemy type, how to crowd control enemies i.e. group them up together and hit as many of them as possible with a single attack, mainly via your kicks, sometimes after dividing and eliminating annoying ones first, and which targets to prioritize. A lot of God Hand's regular enemies mainly just ask you to pressure them with your jab combo into a guard or slow, counterable move then either using a guard crush or counter hit move (high side kick is a good one for counter hitting)
also with Viewtiful Joe, don't you just use the slowdown and spam your attack to do good damage?

No matter what i do, ill never be happy with my body.

If i dont take hrt, ill hit twink death and end up with a disgusting old masculinized body. If i do take hrt, ill end up with shrunken balls and a weird fucked up dick.
Either way, ill still be stuck in a body im extremely uncomfortable in.

Im simply not compatible with this existence. Suicide is the only option left for me

Does testosterone change the shape of your bones after puberty? Yes or no? If it doesn't then I don't see how any sort of permanent "masculinization" could be a thing. If it does then I'd like to see the scientific evidence for this. Nobody has even specified what "masculinization" means exactly. Does it refer to changing bone structure? Face shape? Muscle and fat distribution? Hair growth or loss, wrinkles, weight gain? It's all very nebulous. Also, does this apply in the opposite direction? Would you tell a pre-HRT trans man over 30 that they'll be stuck with a feminine body forever because they feminize with age?
>because you're some fucking 30 year old gay man who'd rather transhumanists stay men that you're attracted to
I'm bisexual actually and attracted to cis and transwomen as well as men. I don't see how I'm making anybody's lives worse (least of all trans people's) by telling them they can successfully transition at any age and shouldn't just give up if they haven't done it before puberty.

Case in point: the Wachowskis. Lilly doesn't pass, Lana does. This is despite the fact that they are almost the same sage and both transitioned well into adulthood. One got lucky to be born with more feminine facial features and the other did not. This would have still been the case if Lilly had transitioned at 18.

then don't talk about it, just shut up, be quiet, and don't talk
let the actual trans people give advice
puberty does not fully end till like your early 30s, and even then women don't start looking a bit more like men till menopause, which is where your misconception about older mtfs passing just fine comes from
not to mention all the socialization you miss out on that makes older trans women act like fucking freaks half the time, i dont wish that on anyone, you dgaf because you just wanna fuck them
also it's not my fucking job to go quote a bunch of studies because you won't stop mansplaining to everyone in the thread about a topic that you're completely uneducated on
also lana doesn't really pass honestly, it's just that post menopausal women also get masculinized somewhat
stop telling some vulnerable early/mid twenties guy that he just won't masculinize at all because "puberty is done"
just fuck off, please, you're so fucking stupid, i wish death upon every retarded moid chaser like you

blanchardism should be formally and explicitly banned from this board
it is total pseudoscientific drivel that hurts trans people, especially trans women.
We have a site-wide mandate against wojaks and pepes, but not against this bullshit?

blanchardism fails to meet even the bourgeois scientific standards of validity, let alone the scrutiny of dialectical-materialist analysis
it's a crackpot theory concocted by an ameriKKKan Klanadian cishet boomer moid working in the aKKKademic mediKKKal SSience establishment.

All blanchardist lingo should result in an immediate ban lasting 3 to 7 days, with repeat offenders being permabanned.

When all else fails, make users keep a killfile! Vichan can hide by name, which is obviously of limited utility when anonymity is concerned, so maybe also implement basic glob or regex filters.

>>32455
>so maybe also implement basic glob or regex filters.
Filters are certainly what I was considering, but in a central censor to allow for more costly filters. Perhaps these could be togglable by the user to give a similar effect to the decentralized glob and regex filters. Obviously these posts wouldn't be federated, and would either be made hidden or removed.

The trouble is that I'm not sure the bots can do a good enough job. There are just so many ways to manipulate a conversation in a negative direction COINTELPRO - or even folks who do this work for free. I think I read that even detection of hate speech is something like a 70% accuracy affair for Facebook with much more developed tools at their disposal, and we're looking to detect far more subtle acts than hate speech.

I'm really at a loss for how to manage this, and it might be hindering my motivation to progress.

>>32461
Think there's really only two design objectives:
1. equal power to every post/poster
- no follower/following model.
- no ranking of posts by popularity.
- no names to discriminate content of users.
- (optional: following based on content via tags.)
2. quality content.
- access to a large collection of posts (federation - you could always make a new server but not you can get content on it).
- some restriction on the domain of acceptable discourse.

The fundamental contradiction is that without CIDR (centralization - and so no content) or usernames (reputation - and so unequal power) to distinguish posters I think there is no possibility of any sort of bans, and this makes creation of quality content difficult with today's level of technology.

>>32461
>a central censor to allow for more costly filters
Filters shouldn't be costly, unless there's something deeply wrong with your architecture (like emacs gnus scoring articles in a single thread by fetching them multiple times).
>The trouble is that I'm not sure the bots can do a good enough job.
They likely can't. This is why you give users the options to configure these filters, because it allows them to do aggressive filtering at their own risk. The more a filter or lack thereof bothers them personally, the more time they will spend on refining it, a textbook case of worse-is-better.

>>32471
>Filters shouldn't be costly.
Well, if we're using LLMs at all they would be from the user perspective.

>They likely can't. This is why you give users the options to configure these filters, because it allows them to do aggressive filtering at their own risk.

This tracks, it's a good idea. Having two tiers of filtering, one for basic federation (meeting basic social standards of the fediverse) and another tier with per instance filtering you could make it federate well, at least on the level of the Group. I also like the idea that sense we're working with trees of a single inReplyTo link per post you can go ahead and hide entire trees at once. Making bump ordering work with this is a tractable problem.

I'll pick a card for each question
>Personality
4 of cups reversed. Maybe a person with a tendency to tell other people to smarten up and be more perceptive. The kind of person that notices when you ignore an opportunity or a new opening. This could be a good thing, many times in my life I only took an opportunity just because someone else pointed out that it was there at all.
She could also be someone with a tendency to ignore her own insights and emotional inner world.
Also this card is correlated to moon in cancer so she could be someone whose feelings are all about stability and having a strong sense of "family" and the reversal means that this is manifested inwards and very difficult to notice from the outside.
>about them
5 of cups. Likely someone that has lost a lot or has a strong feeling of loss.
>can they be realiable and trusted?
Death RX. Up til now it's all water cards, because Death is linked to scorpio, which in general makes me the vibe she's a very emotional person.
Having said that, Death is related to transformation, to change. Within the context of your question I find that very ambiguous, but a reversal makes me think she's prone to stagnation and can't be trusted when it comes to things that require flexibility or acting against one's habits.
>interests?
Hanged man reversed which feels fucking crazy to me. Hanged man is related to Pluto, the ruling planet of Scorpio (RULER OF THE DEATH) so this person is super charged with emotional energy like absolutely insanely so.
Now, the hanged man is all about insight from seeing things from a different perspective and preceeds transformation. What comes to mind right away given that this is a reversal is that she's a person that feels like other people don't understand her and that if they saw her from a different perspective they'd warm up to her. She may be interested in things that gives other people a sense of what kind of person she is. She may specifically like fiction that connects to her life's story or that closely matches her feelings, maybe desperate that other people will see the parallels.

Seems like there are a few people on leftypol interested in this subject so I thought I'd create a thread dedicated to discussing the Wydna collective and Pseudodoxology podcast
>What is Wydna?
Wydna is a research collective dedicated to reading history through a unique lens. Taking inspiration from Marxism and Accelerationism, Kantbot and other members of the collective dedicate themselves to uncovering the conspiracies, traditions and ideologies that circle the elites of the British and American Empires. Through their podcast, they discuss secret societies, scandals, and factions of the deep state in a fashion considered unconventional to our current interpretation of history.
>That sounds great, where can I learn more?
Their episodes are paywalled, so that's why I'm making this thread. I will be uploading some of their more noteworthy episodes on request here for those who aren't interested in paying the 5$ a month on patreon.
You can listen to their most popular episodes for free on Spotify https://open.spotify.com/show/45p4IYDT96zuulXl1oH5wW?si=4uuH0B85RjWbbqdEmnwQkw
And I will be filling this thread with links to episodes I consider noteworthy.
I'll start by uploading their episode on the history of political economy, which is 7 hours, so I'll be breaking the audio up into several parts. This post, OP, contains the first 3.

I have spent hours listening to KB/wydna and thinking about his overall project. Can't say I'm proud of it, but that's the truth. He's an interesting if frustrating dude. At some level his intellectual commitments are just, like, German media theory and the sociology of knowledge. But at another level he's got this completely shamelessness that lets him dick around with frog twitter and that intersection is basically where his interesting shit comes from.

>kantbot: one of us, a poster, not credible, no rigor.

This is a psyop created by a elite few to control generational wealth accumulation. They themselves do the complete opposite - they cherish the memories of their ancestors and continue passing down knowledge and wealth to each generation without putting any of them into predefined boxes. Remember, you are the physical manifestation of your ancestors’ will to survive.

With that being said, there is a challenge to set an example for others—to accumulate wealth in a healthy way that will empower and unite our families and communities.

it's just a containment board for idealist and schizo posting. just like >>>/dead/ is a containment board for doomer and nihilist shit.

I think the reason they can accumulate wealth is because they have it in the first place, and use that to extract surplus labor.

That said, age ranges and year ranges would be better and more descriptive. I usually don't mention generations unless someone I'm talking to brings them up.
